Stuck im aufstreichen ("Play in the sweeping-upon") is a brief German fencing manual from the early 16th century. The author of this treatise is unknown, though it has been variously attributed to Sigmund ain Ringeck (due to its presence in the MS Dresd.C.487, which was once erroneously attributed to Ringeck) and Andre Paurñfeyndt (who includes it in his treatment of long sword fencing, but who also borrows from other authors like Andre Lignitzer without attribution).

It consists of several plays of fencing with the two-handed sword, primarily from a low guard called iron gate or side guard, and it both mentions the Recital and shows familiarity with the principles of Liechtenauer's fencing. The iron gate is also discussed in an earlier treatise by Andres Juden, Hans Döbringer, Jobs von der Nissen, and Nicklass Preußen, but there is little technical overlap between the two works (though both treatises are included in MS E.1939.65.341).

The oldest known copies of this work are two manuscripts from the early 16th century, MS Dresd.C.487 (1504-19) and MS E.1939.65.341 (1508). It was also published by Freifechter Andre Paurñfeyndt in 1516 as the final section of the teachings on the two-handed sword in his treatise Ergrundung Ritterlicher Kunst der Fechterey ("Foundation of the Chivalric Art of Swordplay").[1] (Paurñfeyndt's text would be reprinted by Christian Egenolff four times between 1531 and 1558,[2] transcribed by Lienhart Sollinger into the Cod. I.6.2º.2 in 1564,[3] and translated to Middle Walloon and printed by Willem Vorsterman in 1538.[4])
